Finished Quilts and Need

     With the floods in SC many families have lost homes and/or possessions. A few members and staff of my church have losses.  Our church quilt group is interested in sharing quilts to help.  Yesterday I finished 2 small quilts.  First is a child’s quilt made from a fabric book panel.

Second is the stack and slice quilt made from Karla Alexander’s pattern from Stack the Deck Revisited.

       I used this quilt to practice a new FMQ motif which begins with a swirl and then forms a sort of flower.  I still more practice with this motif to build muscle memory for stitch regulation but I like how the motif adds texture to this quilt.  

As of this morning there is another search going on for people who drove past barricades and the road caved in.  I hope people will listen and pay attention to the warnings that are still going on.
